Statistical information
With eleven titles collected alongside his twin brother
Mike plus a mixed doubles title won at the
US Open with
Liezel Huber, doubles world no. 1
Bob Bryan is the title leader in the 2010 ATP World Tour season.
[4]
These tables present the number of singles (S), doubles (D), and mixed doubles (X) titles won by each player and each nation during the season, within all the tournament categories of the 2010 ATP World Tour: the Grand Slam tournaments, the ATP World Tour Finals, the ATP World Tour Masters 1000, the ATP World Tour 500 series, and the ATP World Tour 250 series.[3] The players/nations are sorted by: 1) total number of titles (a doubles title won by two players representing the same nation counts as only one win for the nation); 2) cumulated importance of those titles (one Grand Slam win equalling two Masters 1000 wins, one ATP World Tour Finals win equalling one-and-a-half Masters 1000 win, one Masters 1000 win equalling two 500 events wins, one 500 event win equalling two 250 events wins); 3) a singles > doubles > mixed doubles hierarchy; 4) alphabetical order (by family names for players).

ATP Points were distributed from 2009 to 2015[16]
- Glossary
Only World Group and World Group Play-Off matches and only live matches earn points. Dead rubbers earn no points. If a player does not compete in the singles of one or more rounds he will receive points from the previous round when playing singles at the next tie. This last rule also applies for playing in doubles matches.[16]
1 A player who wins a singles rubber in the first day of the tie is awarded 5 points, whereas a singles rubber win in tie's last day grants 10 points for a total of 15 available points.[16]
2 For the first round only, any player who competes in a live rubber, without a win, receives 10 ranking points for participation.[16]
3 Team bonus awarded to a singles player who wins 7 live matches in a calendar year and his team wins the competition.[16]
4 Performance bonus awarded to a singles player who wins 8 live matches in a calendar year. In this case, no Team bonus is awarded.[16]
5 Team bonus awarded to an unchanged doubles team who wins 4 matches in a calendar year and his team wins the competition.[16]

Retirements and comebacks
Following is a list of notable players (winners of a main tour title, and/or part of the ATP Rankings top 100 (singles) or top 50 (doubles) for at least one week) who announced their retirement from professional tennis during the 2010 season:
Thierry Ascione (born January 17, 1981 in Villeurbanne, France) turned professional in 2000, reached his career-high singles ranking, no. 81, in 2004. Ascione had his best results on the ATP Challenger Tour, where he collected eight singles titles. He played his last match on the main tour in Metz in September.[18]
Younes El Aynaoui (born September 12, 1971 in Rabat, Morocco) entered the tour in 1990, and was ranked no. 14 in singles in 2003. He collected five titles on the main circuit, and reached four Grand Slam quarterfinals, at the Australian Open (2000, 2003) and the US Open (2002, 2003). Regularly injured since 2004, El Aynaoui made several comeback attempts before deciding to close his career in Doha in January.[19]
Guillermo Cañas (born December 25, 1977 in Buenos Aires, Argentina) turned professional in 1995, and peaked no. 8 in singles in 2005 and no. 47 in doubles in 2002. He won seven titles in singles (including the 2002 Toronto Masters), two in doubles, and reached the quarterfinals of the French Open three times (2002, 2005, 2007). Suspended for doping in 2005, Cañas was acquitted in 2006 and returned to the tour in 2007, finishing the year ranked no. 15. He played his last match in the Hamburg qualifying in July 2009.[20]
Taylor Dent (born April 24, 1981 in Newport Beach, United States) became a tennis pro in 1998, and reached his highest singles ranking, no. 21, in 2005. The son of former ATP pro Phil Dent, Taylor Dent collected four singles titles on the main circuit, last playing at the Charlottesville Challenger in November.[22]
Sébastien Grosjean (born May 29, 1978 in Marseille, France) turned professional in 1996 and peaked at the no. 4 ranking in late-2002, finishing two seasons in the top 10 (2001, 2003). One-time runner-up at the Tennis Masters Cup (2001, lost to Hewitt), Grosjean won four singles and five doubles titles in his career, and made four Grand Slam semifinals, at the Australian Open (2001), at the French Open (2001) and at Wimbledon (2003, 2004). He played his last match in March in Sunrise, and retired during the French Open in May.[23]
Dominik Hrbatý (born 4 January 1978 in Bratislava, Slovakia) retired after 14 years of professional play citing the reason as being able to spend more time with his family as his wife was due to give birth in December. He was one of the two active players to have a positive win-loss records against Rafael Nadal. He reached the 1999 French Open semifinals only to lose to the eventual champion Andre Agassi. On the team ground, he was more successful, winning the 2005 and 2009 Hopman Cup and reaching the 2005 Davis Cup final as a recurring member of the Slovakia Davis Cup team. The same year he was elected Slovakian sportsman of the year. He peaked the ATP rankings on 12 October 2004. He has six singles career titles.[24]
Nicolas Kiefer (born July 5, 1977 in Holzminden, Germany, then-West Germany) joined the circuit in 1995, ranking as high as no. 4 in singles in 2000. An Australian Open and US Open boys' singles champion (1995), Kiefer went on to win six singles and three doubles titles on the main tour. In Grand Slams, he reached the quarterfinals at Wimbledon (1997) and the US Open (2000), and the semis in Melbourne (2006). Partnering countryman Rainer Schüttler, Kiefer also took the silver medal in doubles at the 2004 Athens Olympics, losing the final in five sets (lost to González/Massú).
